Fitted these Sparco belt sets to my one, they are the 4 point variety and fitted in less than an hour, my lad got them from Halfrauds (shame to say he works there , I had such high hopes) they were on offer for Â£40 squid and he used his employee discount card, as he is a qualified belt fitter he did them for me. Total cost Â£20.00 and a beer. . As you can see from the pics, they are anchored to the picket points under the rear seats. They stay out of the way in the crook of the seat so when driving with the standard seat belt they don't feel uncomfortable. The car has just past the MOT and no problems were picked up.

personally for the road your better off with a std seat belt...........

a harness adjusted properly relies on little or no movement as it doesn't have the recoil facility a std one has, and this causes problems with even simple things like glancing over your shoulder at junctions, etc.

Totally agree, I haven't yet used the harnesses whilst driving on the roads, just for track use................and the fact that I can deter the Mother in Law from taking a rear seat wedgie

Have heard rumours recently that harness,s fitted this Way can end up with you busting your neck even after a small bump due to lack of movement!! Should be fitted using a harness bar so straps are more horizontal to shoulders... Instead of pulling down on them? Allowing allowing slightly movement on impact???

The MSA regulations state that (if i remember right ) that the angle from the seat seatbelt runner(hole in the seat) to the mounting point has to be no more than 15 degrees as a steep angle (like the one you have) in an accident pull you down into the seat rather than holding you back and can cause you spinal damage. It is also worth noting that if you are of the taller variety the holes in the seat should be above your shoulder if you are going to fit harnesses as if not your shoulder will take all the forces that are being applied in an accident rather than the seat and will in turn compress you spine.

I am 6'6" so had to go down to demon tweeks to get fitted for a seat for my race car and have an extra bar welded onto the cage to run the harness over as mine was initially fixed like yours.

the harness also, as already stated, have to be properly tight when driving as the impact can be quite sever if loose. (my uncles one was not fully tight and he flipped his rage buggy and broke his back)
